What is the type of plate boundary where two plates move together causig one of the slabs of lithosphere to descend into the mantle beneath an overriding plate?
This type of plate boundary is called a convergent boundary or subduction zone. It occurs when two tectonic plates collide, with the denser oceanic plate being forced beneath the less dense continental plate. This process can lead to the formation of deep oceanic trenches and volcanic arcs on the overriding plate.
What causes a rocket to drop back to earth?
A rocket drops back to Earth due to the force of gravity pulling it down. Once the rocket's engines stop providing thrust, the gravity of Earth becomes the dominant force, causing the rocket to descend.
How do temperature and pressure change as you descend into the ocean?
As you descend into the ocean, temperature typically decreases due to the lack of sunlight penetration and heat exchange with the cold deep water. Pressure, on the other hand, increases with depth due to the weight of the water above pushing down.
What is a low-precipitation area on the leeward side of a mountain range is called?
A low-precipitation area on the leeward side of a mountain range is called a rain shadow. Rain shadows occur because the mountains block moisture-bearing clouds, causing the air to descend and warm, leading to reduced rainfall on the leeward side.
Can spaceships bounce off the atmosphere?
No, spaceships cannot bounce off the atmosphere. When entering the Earth's atmosphere, spaceships experience atmospheric drag which slows them down, causing them to eventually descend and land or burn up if they are moving too fast.
